WHAT'S NEW This update makes the community screens easier to use. LIKE WITH A DOUBLE TAP Double-tap a photo in a pattern's gallery to like the pattern. A heart pops over the photo you tapped. A single tap still moves between photos. SHARE AND REPORT BUTTONS Share and Report are now two clear buttons in one row on a pattern screen. Each one is easy to hit. Before, they looked like plain text rows. CLAIM A USERNAME Set an optional username once from your profile. The app then shows it as @yourname and uses it in your profile links. You cannot change it later, so links you already shared keep working. If you skip it, your links stay in the old form and still work.

This release is about showing off what you made. PHOTOS ON PUBLISHED PATTERNS Attach up to five photos of your finished piece when you publish a pattern. Pick which one is the cover, add more with the camera, remove the ones you don't want. Your cover shows up on cards in Explore, on profiles and on the Home community strip, with an "N photos" label. Until a pattern passes review it stays private, photos included. A GALLERY VIEWERS CAN USE Open a pattern and swipe through the photos — the chart is always the last frame, so anyone who came for the photos can still find the chart. Shared web links get the same gallery, with arrows and dots on desktop, plus a Smart App Banner and an open-in-app button on phones. A CLEANER EXPORT FLOW Exporting now lands on a "Your pattern is ready" screen instead of throwing the share sheet at you. From there: Share, Export again (PDF or text), or Done. Full-screen ads only ever play before that screen, never on top of it. SMALLER THINGS - The black & white colour option is gone — colours are always chosen from your photo, so the colour-count slider now works across its full range. - The grid preview no longer jumps while you drag the size slider. - Email addresses ignore capital letters, and a duplicate registration is refused instead of creating a second account. - Two wrong passwords in a row offer the password reset flow rather than leaving you stuck. - Reporting the same pattern twice, or blocking someone who is already blocked, now works instead of erroring. - Home shows a pattern's review status change on its own. - The store review prompt asks once and then respects its cooldown.

- Patterns and profiles are shareable now, with web pages that open directly in the app. - Images with transparent backgrounds are supported. Erased areas become no-stitch cells, marked with dots in the preview and legend. The dots are bigger in PDF exports too.- - Also fixed the keyboard hiding the project name field on the crop screen, plus some share link issues.
